I wish. Didnt get the lottery at all. But Ive pulled off getting into all the shows I've needed to get into so hopefully it works out this time. I'll be there no matter what, they are one of my favorite bands.

It's okay, guys... this person ultimately decided s/he couldn't go. I'm sure something totally unexpected came up in the 12 minutes between their purchase and their craigslist post, and they couldn't afford to not double the price.

Re: Just announced shows in San Francisco

I don't understand the Independent's system. Limit two tickets, but it said tickets weren't available when I tried two. Switch to one, and it said all tickets were in shopping carts and might become available.

Which was true - I snagged one ten minutes and a thousand clicks/refreshes later (and feel damn lucky, yes). But is the point that for any high volume show like this, I should always just try for a single ticket?

for GA shows it really shouldn't make a difference until there is only one ticket left.

kudos to ticketfly though. the site didn't ground to a halt, and they made it clear when tickets were in other people's carts and when it was totally sold out. none of this vague ticketmaster BS.

only from a ticketmaster listing that was since removed, which is not a reliable source. now there is official confirmation of the venue.

I'd never heard of this place. despite the inconvenience it looks pretty cool.
